Any distros like linux mint with gnome desktop?

Ubuntu is great but uses snaps and adds other canonical bits. Linux Mint is essentially perfect but does not come with gnome desktop. Is there a ubuntu based distro that is essentially like linux mint but offers gnome as a desktop?

Manjaro gnome? Or skip the middle man and go to Debian

What middle-man are you skipping? Manjaro is based on Arch.

Perhaps you meant Ubuntu as Ubuntu is based on Debian and Mint is based on Ubuntu. I agree that I would prefer plain Debian these days over Ubuntu but Debian does not have everything out of the box a Mint or Ubuntu user may like.

Regardless, do not use Manjaro. If you cannot install Arch but like it, use EndeavourOS.

If they like Mint, they should just install GNOME on it.

@manapropos @LeFantome love it when d-bags make these kinds of comments. Now I get to keep my mute list happy by feeding it another name. You know, Linux users get a bad rap because of snark like this.
